my initial impression is that this crowd is either not very scientifically literate or is intentionally being disingenuous to promote some agenda other than science.
If you click on the name of the person to whom you are conversing, you will call up part of their post ing history. That will give an impression of what that person is generally like.
If you click on the profile button in that page, you will get their profile, which may tell you a little more about that person.

Take an example....
Actually, my favorite example is the irregularities in the orbit of Uranus in the 19th century. Rather than "falsifying" Newton's Theory of Gravity, it lead to the discovery of Neptune.
Of course, what this means is that "falsification" is a little more subtle than the cartoon Popperian idea.
